do you ever wonder about the ethical implications of how the images you're watching were made? I'll give some examples of situations that may or may not be common, that raise some questions for me.

-how much of the real amateur porn, of just a couple getting it on, was posted to a site without the partners consent? I'm not talking about low budget porn, but the stuff made by a couple simply getting it on or for a partner, camera in hand or on the bedside. How much of that was filmed under promise of confidentiality? How would you feel watching that film, when one partner wouldn't have consented to the distribution of it?
-digital photos, as above.
-pics harvested from teens' social networking sites, not intended for distribution
-candid/voyeur beach videos of hot girls topless/in bikinis.
-videos/photos coming from areas where young women have very limited economic opportunities: eg. eastern europe.
-And then there's commercial porn. I don't even know how to open up that one. There are many ethical arguments that might be made against it: for example: objectification/subjugation/manufacturing/disembodying of women (and sometimes men), warping of our sexual/physical expectations for ourselves and our partners, teaching girls to value themselves based on sex appeal to men, etc.

And I'm not talking about material that is illegal to produce or possess.

If you have any ethical issues about it, do you abstain from such material?

Does anyone watch only "organic/free-range" porn, ie that which is entirely not commercial, for ethical reasons?

Do you ever find that watching stuff ever makes you feel kinda shitty, and wonder if its because it conflicts what you feel is right, but damn, you still find it hot?

Thanks for your thoughts! I'm wondering about all of these questions myself, and I'm curious to know if anyone else wonders about this stuff.

About pics... I just noticed that my pics have been downloaded a few hundred times from this site. I find it odd that even the pic of my glasses sitting on a table has been downloaded... I'm still trying to figure out that one, but in terms of nudies, I don't mind showing my breasts in public (no more though), and in fact, I did that on numerous ocassions when I was breastfeeding. Fortunately, I live in a place where that is not an issue.... some people looked at me, some others didn't, and some passersby even smiled at me in approval. So, who cares, certainly not me...

As for porno, personally I don't find them sexually engaging for the most part. Ocassionally, I find videos that I like to watch... they would involve women who are obviously enjoying their part... and that I can relate to.

For those who enjoy using visual erotica/porn of any type:

1. Don't end every scene with the guy jerking off into the girls open mouth. Especially when the girl is just sitting there, obviously waiting for the scene to be over.
2. Every MFM does not need to be a DP scene
3. We do not need anal in every scene
4. Stop spitting, please.
5. Stop spanking the girls tits and ass red.
6. Let the girl jerk the guy off to completion more often. They always seem to end with the guy doing himself.
7. Let amatuers be amatuers, not people who do porn scenes.
8. Stop with the porn where women are tricked into having sex. I know that this is scripted, but just think its dumb.
9. Cum swapping. Really? Why bother.

Here's another thing you can add to that list:
ATM...just plain nasty! Ugh!

Frankly, if any person any legal age, male or female; or a legal age couple submits to photography of part of or all of their anatomy for display outside the bedroom, (which includes here) and some legal issue arises or someone becomes embarrassed, there should not be any big surprise. It could be an underage partner who claims they are 18. Or an over protective Father who has it out for the guy who influenced his Daughter even if she is over 18.
As seen on TV last night, guys who have posted underage pictures of girls on the internet and get caught are treated like pedophiles under antiquated laws enacted before the internet was thought of...end up treated bad by friends, neighbors; find it impossi9ble to get work and suffer huge embarrassment. The pedophile label stays for a long time. When posting pictures of body parts on the internet, it is almost the same as putting them on the front page of a newspaper. Once done, you can't take it back and you have to ask yourself, "Do I really want this?" and "What do I get out of it?"
